Good deal on .223
 

If anyone is interested, I just wanted to give a heads up on a decent deal AIM Surplus has on .223 ammo.

They are selling it for $345 + $.01 (basically free) shipping. This is a much better deal than what I have seen locally on Federal XM193, even without preloaded stripper clips.

I just ordered some and wanted to give anyone else that might be interested a heads up.

.38 per round is pretty good for 55 grain .223

Picked up a case of this a couple weeks ago... Brass / boxer 55grain .223 @ .30/round...

Was the service and everything OK? Ive never heard of them but that is a good deal, very interested.

Re: Good deal on .223
 

Good price but shipping is rediculous! $60 to ship a case to me! :rant:

Re: Good deal on .223
 

Yep, $60 to ship to me too. Methinks they're padding their prices with shipping costs...


But still even with that shipping it puts it at $0.367 a round. not terrible...just shady shipping practices. Would be good range ammo though, boat tail FMJ.

How is M193 as a purely range ammo? what is the accuracy like?

Re: Good deal on .223
 

Ah, see for me thats a local purchase.

I paid tax of ~$30 but no shipping... Same cost in the store.

For those that dont know them, SGC is a very nice, very high end gun store / range in Scottsdale AZ. They cater to the spoiled rich kids in town.. I'd trust them for any mailorder your interested in, but obviously not if the S&H kills the price!

I now rescind my previous comment about them charging too much for shipping.

Either they put up a new page, or I missed it before, but they have fixed their $60 shipping error. They claim that purchasing 50 individual boxes cost higher shipping because it was in the system as a minimum #1 weight per box.

If you buy a whole case they charge you based on the actual weight, ~#31 lbs. and a shipping charge of only $31.94.

Is their 1000 round case page.

$305 + $32 = $337 or $0.337 cents / round. Good deal on FMJBT for the range...
